INTRODUCTION
1. In our previous study we defined the spiritual disciplines as...
a. Spiritual exercises that one engages in habitually which bring one
closer to God and thus become more godly in character and behavior
b. Spiritual activities such as prayer, meditation, fasting, singing,
giving, etc.
2. Now we shall consider such disciplines more carefully, beginning with

a. An activity in which Jesus Himself frequently practiced - Lk 5:16
b. A spiritual exercise enjoined upon Christi

What the science about the your name?
I love my culture (Hip-Hop)...but I'm very fed up with the overbearing focus on pride. In my opinion, unrighteous pride kills any culture because it focuses on self, and not Community...and it sometimes seems that Hip-Hop has one of the highest levels of pride. everyone wants to battle to be 'the best'. so I thought about it a lot...and I wanted to take a name that represented the opposite of pride....HUMILITY. it didn't take long until I latched onto the n

Anger and loss of temper are problems that all people face at times. With some the problems are habitual. Is it always sinful to be angry? What does the Bible say about anger, wrath, blowing up, and clamming up? Should we vent our feelings to "get it out of our system"? Can we control our tempers? What guidance does God's word give in overcoming the temptations of anger?
The purpose of this lesson is to study the Bible teaching about anger.
All of us have problems controlling our temper at tim

Samson
Samson was a leader of the Israelites for 20 years. He had many qualifications for leadership including courage and love for his people. His major blunder was falling in love with Delilah and revealing the secret of his strength to her. Delilah was bribed by the governors of the Philistines to find out what gave Samson his preternatural strength. Delilah put a great deal of pressure on Samson and discovered that as long as Samson remained a nazirate to God and

Balaam
Balaam was a prophet with unique capabilities: Balak, king of Moab said about him that "whomever you bless is blessed and whomever you curse is accursed" (Numbers 22:6). He also had the ability to see into the distant future and prophesied the futures of Moab, Edom, Seir, Amalek, and Assyria (Numbers 24:17-24). It is not surprising that leaders of countries such as Moab and Midian would consult with him. What did Balaam do with his exceptional talents? He became

Joseph
Joseph was sold by his brothers as a slave and was ultimately purchased by Potiphar (Genesis 39). His master recognized Joseph’s abilities and appointed him over his entire household. Potiphar’s wife attempted to seduce Joseph and he did not succumb because he felt: "how can I perpetrate this great evil and sin against God" (Genesis 39: 9). Joseph did not want to behave in an immoral manner even though it would have been very easy to rationalize given that he

I’ve heard a few artists and fans alike remark about the incredible didactic potential of hip-hop music due to the genre’s mile-a-minute lyrical format. As a result of the fast-paced nature of hip-hop, rappers can convey tons of lyrical information in one track–much more than say, your average folk song. As a label, Lampmode has certainly made the most of hip-hop’s potential for rapidly dispensing pounds of information over beats, crafting a brand of rap known as “lyrical theolo
